Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of livestock breeding equipment technology, and in particular to a cement trough limiting component. Background Technology

[0002] Livestock feeding troughs, also known as monoculture troughs or long troughs, are a long-standing type of feeding facility commonly used in large-scale indoor feeding of livestock such as pigs, cattle, and sheep. Their basic structure consists of a long, narrow feeding trough, fixed to one side or center of the pen. All livestock, or livestock in the same group, obtain feed from this single trough. The initial design aimed to improve feeding efficiency, save space, and facilitate mechanized feeding and clean management. While monoculture feeding offers management convenience, its "one-size-fits-all" centralized feeding model has revealed a core flaw in practice: significant uneven growth rates and body sizes occur within the same batch and group of livestock. For high-yielding or rapidly growing individuals, a uniform feed amount may not meet their maximum growth potential, while for individuals with lower feed requirements, a uniform feed amount may lead to overfeeding, feed waste, and even obesity. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides a cement channel limiting component, comprising:

[0034] Channel body 1;

[0035] Multiple partitions 2 are spaced apart on the through-slot body 1 to divide the through-slot body 1 into multiple feeding chambers 3;

[0036] The first driving component is located in the feeding chamber 3;

[0037] The second driving component is electrically connected to the first driving component;

[0038] Multiple storage bins 4 are provided in the feeding chamber 3 in a one-to-one correspondence. Each storage bin 4 has multiple independently provided inner cavities 41 and a cover that is movably provided in the storage bin 4. The cover has a notch 42.

[0039] When the first driving member and the second driving member work together, they are used to drive the notch 42 to connect with any of the inner cavities 41.

[0040] In this embodiment, in order to feed individual livestock individually, multiple partitions 2 are spaced apart on the trough body 1. Adjacent partitions 2 are used to divide the trough body 1 into multiple independent feeding chambers 3. The feeding chamber 3 is equipped with an electrically connected first drive and second drive, which are used to connect to the storage bin 4 inside the feeding chamber 3. The storage bin 4 has three inner cavities 41, each of which can store different types or formulas of feed. By controlling the alignment of the cover notch 42 through the linkage of the first drive and the second drive, customized daily rations can be provided for individual livestock entering a specific feeding chamber 3, fundamentally meeting their differentiated nutritional needs and solving the problem of uneven growth from the source. The partitions 2 restrict each livestock to an independent feeding chamber 3, avoiding direct fighting and squeezing between livestock during the feeding process, and ensuring the feeding time and space for weaker individual livestock. This structure integrates the functions of storage, mixing, and feeding into the traditional trough structure, which is easy to modify, does not occupy additional pen space, and is suitable for existing large-scale farms.

[0041] The first driving component is a weighing sensor located at the bottom of the feeding chamber 3, and the second driving component is a servo motor connected to the storage hopper 4.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first driving component is a weighing sensor located at the bottom of the feeding chamber 3, and the second driving component is a servo motor connected to the storage bin 4. When livestock enter the bottom of the feeding chamber 3, the weighing sensor senses the weight and generates a weak electrical signal. The weighing transmitter amplifies the signal and converts it into a digital value, which is then sent to the PLC via a communication line. The PLC reads the weight value and starts the program, sending a rotation command to the servo motor to drive it to rotate precisely, thus connecting any inner cavity 41 of the storage bin with the notch 42. Specifically, assuming the weighing sensor is set to three range values, such as livestock weight between 20-25 kg, the weighing sensor is set to three range values. When the animal's weight is between 26-31 kg, or the livestock's weight is between 32-37 kg, the system works in conjunction with the servo motor. If the weighing sensor detects that the livestock's weight is within the first range (e.g., 20-25 kg), a first electrical signal is generated and transmitted to the servo motor. After receiving the signal, the servo motor precisely drives the storage bin 4 to rotate 90° relative to the cover, aligning and connecting the notch 42 on the cover with the outlet of the first inner cavity 41 of the storage bin 4. At this time, feed pre-stored in the first inner cavity 41, suitable for that weight range, is provided for the livestock. If the weighing sensor detects that the livestock's weight is within the second range (e.g., 26-31 kg), the system works in conjunction with the servo motor. If the servo motor drives the storage bin 4 to rotate another 90° (or from the initial position to 180°), the notch 42 connects with the second inner cavity 41. The second inner cavity 41 can store balanced growth feed suitable for the mid-growth stage to meet the nutritional needs of livestock at this stage. If the weighing sensor detects that the livestock's weight is in the third range (e.g., 32-37KG), a third electrical signal is generated, and the servo motor drives the storage bin 4 to rotate another 90° (or from the initial position to 270°), the notch 42 connects with the third inner cavity 41. The third inner cavity 41 can store balanced growth feed suitable for the late growth stage or... This invention provides fortified fattening feed during the fattening period to promote muscle growth and energy deposition. The feeding scheme of this invention enables precise, phased feeding based on body weight, transforming the traditional uniform group feeding model into a segmented feeding model. Through weighing sensors, it automatically identifies individual size and provides the most suitable feed formula for that growth stage, ensuring precise matching of nutritional supply and growth needs. The high degree of automation reduces human error; the entire process of identification, judgment, feed preparation, and dispensing is fully automated, requiring no manual intervention. This significantly reduces the workload of livestock farmers and completely avoids inaccurate feeding caused by subjective human judgment errors. By providing differentiated nutrition to livestock of different weights, it effectively increases the catch-up growth of weaker individuals (smaller weight) while preventing excessive obesity in dominant individuals (larger weight), thereby significantly improving the uniformity of the herd at slaughter and enhancing overall economic efficiency.

[0043] The feeding chamber 3 has a first chute 5 on its opposite sides, and the storage chamber 4 is suspended from the top of the feeding chamber 3 through the first chute 5.

[0044] In this embodiment, a first chute 5 is provided on opposite sides of the feeding chamber 3, and the storage bin 4 is suspended on the top of the feeding chamber 3 through the first chute 5. The storage bin 4 is placed on the top of the feeding chamber 3 to prevent livestock with higher weight from eating the feed in the front inner cavity 41 before the storage bin 4 has been rotated to the appropriate inner cavity 41. This situation can be avoided by letting the storage bin 4 fall from the top of the feeding chamber 3.

[0045] The storage bin 4 is provided with a limiting structure, which includes a limiting seat 6 and a limiting rod 7. The limiting seat 6 is provided with a limiting opening 61, and the limiting rod 7 can selectively extend into or out of the limiting opening 61.

[0046] In this embodiment, in order to enable the storage bin 4 to be suspended above the feeding bin 3, two limiting seats 6 are provided on the top of the storage bin 4. The limiting seats 6 have limiting openings 61 for the limiting rod 7 to extend or retract, so as to keep the storage bin 4 in a stationary or feeding state.

[0047] The limiting structure further includes:

[0048] The second chute 8 is provided in the feeding chamber 3;

[0049] The closed door 9 is slidably disposed in the second slide groove 8;

[0050] A limiting block 10 is provided on the closed door 9. The limiting block 10 has an arc-shaped groove 11. One end of the limiting rod 7 is connected to the closed door 9 through the arc-shaped groove 11, and the other end is connected to the limiting seat 6. The limiting block 10 has a moving groove 12. One end of the limiting rod 7 near the arc-shaped groove 11 passes through the moving groove 12.

[0051] In this embodiment, the feeding chamber 3 is provided with a second chute 8 arranged along its height direction. A closing door 9 is slidably provided in the second chute 8 to close after livestock enter the current feeding chamber 3, preventing adjacent livestock from snatching food. A limiting block 10 is provided at the lower end of the closing door 9, and an arc-shaped groove 11 is provided on the limiting block 10. One end of the limiting rod 7 is movably disposed in the arc-shaped groove 11, and the other end extends into the limiting opening 61. When the closing door 9 descends, the vertical linear movement of the closing door 9 drives the limiting block 10 to move vertically in sync. The vertical movement of the limiting block 10 generates a pulling force on the limiting rod 7, which is converted into a parallel displacement of the limiting rod 7 with the cooperation of the arc-shaped groove 11. The moving groove 12 is set to guide the displacement direction of the limiting rod 7, so that the limiting rod 7 can extend out from the limiting opening 61 and allow the storage bin 4 to fall freely for feeding.

[0052] The length of the closed door 9 is greater than the length of the second slide 8, and adjacent closed doors 9 are connected by a connecting block 13; the closed doors 9 at the first end and the last end are provided with racks, and the feeding chamber 3 is provided with gears that mesh with the racks, for linkage of each closed door 9 to rise or fall.

[0053] In this embodiment, adjacent closed doors 9 are rigidly connected by connecting blocks 13, thereby connecting all the closed doors 9 in the same row into a whole door group. Vertical racks are provided on the closed doors 9 at the first and last ends of the door group. A drive motor and a gear (not shown) driven by the motor are installed on the frame of the feeding chamber 3. The gear meshes with the racks on the first and last closed doors 9.

[0054] When the drive motor is working, it drives the gear to rotate. The gear, through meshing with the rack, drives the first and last closed doors 9 to rise or fall along the second slide rail 8. Since all the closed doors 9 are connected as one unit by the connecting block 13, the synchronous and smooth linkage of all the closed doors 9 can be achieved to rise or fall.

[0055] The through-slot body 1 is provided with a guide section 14, which is located at the entrance of the feeding chamber 3; the guide section 14 is higher than the parallel height of the feeding chamber 3.

[0056] In this embodiment, the guide section 14 is located at the entrance of the feeding hopper 3 to guide livestock into the relatively narrow feeding hopper 3 in the correct posture (usually head forward), reducing hesitation, crowding and confusion at the entrance. The guide section 14 is higher than the bottom surface of the feeding hopper 3, forming a step or ramp, which conforms to the behavioral guidance of livestock's biological characteristics. Animals are accustomed to moving from lower to higher places to explore and feed, and the slightly raised entrance has a natural attraction for livestock, encouraging them to enter.

[0057] The through-slot body 1 is provided with multiple mounting ports 15, and the partition 2 can be selectively installed in any one of the mounting ports 15.

[0058] In this embodiment, by selecting different mounting ports 15 to fix the partition 2, the width of each feeding chamber 3 can be freely adjusted to adapt to different types of livestock and livestock at different growth stages, creating a more suitable feeding chamber 3 to suit different body sizes and growth stages of livestock; as the livestock grow, there is no need to replace the entire trough, only the partition 2 needs to be repositioned to expand the space of the feeding chamber 3, realizing one set of equipment for the entire process, greatly improving the versatility and economy of the equipment.

[0059] The storage bin 4 is made of metal, and the bottom of the feeding bin 3 is covered with magnetic components.

[0060] In this embodiment, when the metal storage bin 4 and the magnetic component at the bottom of the feeding chamber 3 come close to each other, they will generate a magnetic attraction. When the feed falls from the storage bin 4 to the bottom of the feeding chamber 3, the magnetic attraction ensures that the livestock's head does not collide with the storage bin 4 when they are eating. The storage bin 4 is displaced, which causes wear due to hard contact between the storage bin 4 and the output shaft of the servo motor.

[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
